Description

Student documentary profiling four women rock-climbers. They are seen training indoors at the Richard Dunn Sports Centre in Bradford, at (and on) their homes and climbing in Derbyshire. The women also give their opinions and thoughts on rock-climbing, and note that women climbers are beginning to 'close the gap' with the men.
